Any reviews available? I didn't think the Samsung Ultra Micros reached 30MB/s. I stand to be corrected, if accurate then this is a pretty sweet deal.
There is a new version of it (class 10). It is however an 'up to' figure, so YMMV.
recently bought a same one @$37. 2GB file writing only 5mB, USB HDD always 29mB, 8GB Tansand USB(5years old) is 8mB, does help?
I think the OP wants to pay for all our shipping cost and hence has left shipping cost out of the title.
Standard price at scorptec is $39.
title edited '+shipping'
Sandisk also claim 30MB/s on the class 6 ultra micro sd card too. The 6 and 10 look eerily alike, except the 10 usually has a 1 in a U on the bottom left for UHS Speed Class 1, which I notice the one pictured for this post lacks.
Class 6, up to 30MB/s, microSDHC
Class 10 (UHS Speed Class 1), up to 30MB/s, microSDHCThe image for this deal lacks the UHS 1 mark, so it's either the wrong image, old stock or not class 10.
Shrug, beats me.
I have a 64GB SDXC Class 6 from http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/72884 and a Sandisk 4Gb Ultra Micro SDHC class 10 I got from Officeworks
I can't remember what the benchmark speeds were but there was a negligible difference between the two cards in my Samsung GS3. Both could play back 720p mkv files and seek very quickly.
On paper or in a card reader, camera etc one might be faster than the other but the reality is that a phone will perform the same with either (in my experience). my 2c
This costs more on a $/GB ratio than the 64GB c10 ultra model from memorycity (when they have their regular sales on). The 64 is also a tad faster…
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/forum-replies.cfm?t=1582172The catch being that 64 is sdxc not hc. In most cases if you reformat to FAT32 it will work fine, but you can't be sure till you try it with your device.
This is why in the HC change over 4GB was sometimes cheaper than 2GB. This will happen with 32/64 soon.
SDHC and SDXC are interchangeable at the hardware level, and fat32 is good for up to 2TB partitions, so it should work on anything a 32GB card works on. Its not like the move from SD to SDHC which was a slight hardware change.
SHOULD work yes, and in almost all cases yes, however:
1: You can never be sure if the device manufacturer has allowed for the larger capacities as there is no requirement to do so under SDHC.
2: Purely from a labelling support perspective most people will buy the HC for a HC device, so supply/demand will be the same situation, regardless of the technical difference.
Remember FAT32 has a maximum file size of 4Gbytes, which could be a limitation if you deal with large video files (or even the ISO file of a single-layer DVD).
NTFS can handle files of ridiculous size. Maximum file size under NTFS is 16 million terabytes (or more precisely tebibytes). You're not likely to find this a limitation unless your name is Google.
However, many devices (such as cameras) are not able to read or write NTFS-formatted cards.

≈$32
Think shipping is free
Not sure if this company is trustworthy or not though
Description says it's a USH 1 card but the image doesn't show it is. Grrrr, lazy so and so's…
Oh and yes, they are trustworthy, many a bargain posted here before from mymemory.co.uk
Get another 5% off using VE5AW12 or VCSUMMER12 at the checkout, comes down to £19.93 but then they want £1.95 shipping.
Yeh I noticed the photo is a little different to the 1 on sandisk's homepage.
What's ush?
Thx foobar, for the code! Still cheaper than this. Might order 1 now.
There's just too many fake sandisk around.
Edit: I know what UHS is now
Sorry, that should have been UHS, not USH.
Class 10 (UHS Speed Class 1), presumably UHS means Ultra High Speed.
I ordered one too, cheaper than anything I could find on ebay and I know I'll get it and I know it's real.
its out of stock now
:( i missed it!
mymemory is very trustworthy. I have bought from them many times.
These could write at actual=12 MB/sec performance for all that is validated in this post.
At least with old class 10 you could safely assume it to meet 10MB.
A$38 would translate into >72 gigabytes including shipped, from where I would check.

^when you scroll down to class 10; =$16.80/32GB.No interest \suspect advertisement .. not good value.
This is not just any 'class 10', that informaiton is pretty useless. Sustained write is for cameras, not (typically) for phones, which is is designed for. Most class 10 (or higher) devices won't perform anywhere near as well as this in real world phone usage.
Edit: Check Stumo's whirlpool link.
I got that, but of course it seems none other than marketing, this 'Ultra' branding.

Think I'll go class 4 san disk if it will be used for a phone/tablet (or non camera shooting) device.
Good luck with that.
These are the relevant sequential speeds…

Sandisk 32GB 4 19.29 6.00 Q211/USB/OPPretty damn huge difference between the ultras and the 32GB C4 on sequential. And on random, that particular 32GB C4 sandisk has always been one of the fastest by a big margin over any other brand even C10 (and even smaller Sandisk C4 cards), well, until the ultras came out and pwned it in random and sequential too.
You might also note that cheaper brand Class 10 cards have woefull random speeds even though they are Class 10, such as…

PNY 32GB 10 3.596 0.008 Q112/USB/samhandeThe Sandisks (even the C4) are 225 times faster at random writes than that class 10 card.
…So all these Sandisk 'ULT' card trumpeted up as 45 MB/s, boil down to, is 11 MB/s sequential. Thanks. Solid info to have. All class 10 should be fine regardless, it is rather just the random I/O that makes or breaks the card in a phone. So see your 2nd table.
It appear the brands apart from Sandisk (and then maybe Team and Adata) all indeed show very woeful <1 MB/s random WriteMB/s. Best to rule them out with any purchase.
Don't try to get this price at their shopfront at Lutwyche in Brisbane. Went in on Monday with a printout showing the $38 web price, and the staff member said their price is $74 and they wouldn't budge on that price.
The web price has been fluctuating, saw $45 web price Monday night. Perhaps the website price is in error? Website is currently down 11PM 3 July.
The Unique Mobiles website is now back up, says out of stock for the card this deal is about.
Shopping square (Apus Computers) appear to have the same card for $38 plus $6 shipping:
http://www.shoppingsquare.com.au/p_400035_SanDisk_Mobile_Ult…Not entirely sure it is exactly the same card. Both websites say 30MB/sec, but Apus says class 6 while Unique Mobiles says class 10. Class is not marked on the card, are they the same card?
Like most things shoppingsquare, it's probably cheaper on ebay and you'll get free shipping as well.

That's the class 6 ultra for $35.75 delivered, I didn't see the class 10 but I didn't look too hard either, hate ebay.
